I kept thinking about the green "FTT?" bar while I was out of town for the weekend, because I'm having a difficult time seeing it as Jokari Window continuation down. In my analysis above, I was trying to "set aside what I think I know," which is that a bar with a higher high, higher low, and...

In the spirit of Spydertrader's advice to resist overcomplicating things, I'm trying not to worry too much about precision with the Pace levels. As he said, updating the Pace Lines once a month should be sufficient in order to see what we need to see. The ones I've seen are dramatic also...

Hello innersky, As we know, both Peak Volume and Pace Acceleration are characterized by 3 consecutive bars with an acceleration of the Gaussian Slope. I like your hypothesis; I was thinking something similar after Tums' comments about the "Range Volume relationship": ... Someone can...

Thank you for the reply, and for your ongoing efforts to educate. One way to interpret it is that it moved up on IBV (higher high, higher low, higher close). From this viewpoint, the Jokari Window says continuation up. However, the bar closed in Lateral Movement. The Jokari Window...

Romanus, I'm not having any more success than you at annotating today's chart. Here's my chart for the first hour and a half or so, with notes detailing my confusion... :confused:

If I'm not mistaken, it takes 3 bars to take a Flaw from inception to completion. The first bar is part of a dominant Tape. The second bar is the "Flaw Bar," and the third bar completes the Flaw as it resumes the dominant movement. I drew a pink arrow to the middle bar of the Flaw in the...

Based on Spydertrader's comments, I think the important context is that the first down Traverse had been completed (including not just Pts 1, 2, and 3, but also a Flaw). Only after this did the lateral form. Because the lateral did not form until after the completion of the dominant down...

Thanks for the quick reply and helpful information. I had a backline request to share my current Pace Lines, so here they are for ES. I don't currently calculate them for YM, since it is no longer on my layout. Thank you also for the hint today regarding Pace Acceleration vs. Peak Volume...

Regarding Pace Lines in the Volume pane: for several months I've been doing approximately weekly adjustments to my Volume Pace Lines according to the following. I take one month's worth of 5 min ES bars and sort them by Volume, lowest to highest. I then use the following thresholds as the...

During debrief, I tried to incorporate Spydertrader's above comments. As a result, my chart looks different from others posted today. (That doesn't mean mine is correct, however...:D )

I attempted this drill for today's chart. I got stuck around 13:30 EST. My homework for tonight is to try to correct my annotations from yesterday and then run the same drill on that chart. I'll work some more on Peak V too...

In my original example with Volumes of 20K, 30K, and 40,001, I was inadvertently describing an increase in velocity but a decrease in acceleration. I thought you were pointing out that error. An increase in velocity will add to the slope (make it steeper), but will not create an acceleration...

Thank you, Tums, for pointing out my math error. Of course, for us to have acceleration of the Gaussians Slope, Volume must increase at an increasing rate. Therefore, in my example, we would need to see a minimum of 45,001 on Bar 3, giving us a 50.003% increase over Bar 2's Volume. Now Volume...

The utility of being able to distinguish a Pace step-up from Peak Volume is that it allows us to avoid reversing on a Pace step-up, which should actually be a signal of continuation. Peak Volume, on the other hand, is a signal of change, so we should reverse on Peak Volume. I came up with...

Thanks to Aurum for reposting Spydertrader's definition: "Peak Volume also needs three bars to create acceleration of the Gaussians Slope." I left out the word "slope" in my first attempt. I think part of my original answer is correct in that the increase in Volume from Bar 2 to Bar 3...

When Spydertrader mentioned that Peak Volume requires 3 bars in order to create an acceleration of the Gaussians, I understood him to mean that Peak Volume requires a 3 bar sequence such that: 1. The second bar in the sequence shows an increase in Volume over the first bar, and 2. The...

The 6th and 7th bars in the chart snippet created a SP. This became a LF on Bar 8. Bar 9 FBO'd the LF, creating LM. The LM ended on Bar 12 with a LM BO.

I'll answer before reading on: The first 5 bars of the day create a confirmed Chubby Tape down which has yet to show a Flaw or a VE. Bar 6 is an IBGS, which sometimes can signal change, but this particular IBGS occurs on the lowest Volume bar of the day. Although it doesn't actually create...

How's that for timing? I was just thinking about the concept of Super Channels last weekend (although I erroneously referred to them as meta-Channels). The market was kind enough to offer examples of Super Channels on two consecutive days. Edit: perhaps not, heh. I don't see one on...
